[Elara's POV]

[Lost her memory of past few days]

I backed away as the creature launched its attack. Clutching the sword from the temple, I struck at it, but the blade passed through its misty fog as if it were nothing. I knew it wasn’t my mother. The Echo Wraith always appeared as a familiar face—a loved one, a long-lost friend, or a figure from the victim’s past—only to grotesquely distort and morph into a disturbing mask of anguish or malevolence. The expressions on its face are exaggerated and twisted, reflecting the lies and deceit it preys upon. One moment it might seem sorrowful, and the next, it could sneer with malevolence. Its misty form occasionally shimmers with an eerie glow that highlights its undulating contours and shifting visage, creating an unsettling contrast with the surroundings.

The Echo Wraith’s movements are eerily silent and fluid, and its presence brings a numbing cold that enhances the sense of an entity from beyond, making its touch feel like the icy grip o

    [Elara's POV]I continued coughing violently until my throat hurt, and I couldn’t even feel my legs anymore. Tears blurred my vision as I stumbled blindly along the cold tunnel. When I reached the end of the passageway, I collapsed onto the ground, still coughing uncontrollably. After a few moments, my breathing began to slow, and I rested my head against the cold floor. Stalagtor was nowhere to be seen. I lay there for a few more minutes before finally deciding that moving wasn’t an option. Even if I could stand on my own two feet now, I knew I wouldn’t make it to any place safe. I had run out of energy hours ago, when all my body wanted to do was collapse in relief. The only thing keeping me going right now was the faint hope of survival.I stood up and walked towards the edge, where I saw a huge sculpture of my face cemented in the water, stuck in place like a dead fish. Frowning, I knelt down and tried to touch the water slowly, but it kept slipping through my fingers. The water s

    [Author's POV]She stood up, holding her injured arm, and slowly limped along the path which leads upwards. The walls were covered with small scratches and scrapes as she climbed the steep path up to the opening of the hole. She looked up at the top of the rocks towering over her. They were dark grey, and looked smooth like marble. They sparkled under the light, like the scales of some strange beast she’d seen once in a book. But unlike any beast she’d ever seen or even read about, there was nothing alive behind these cliffs. There is nothing to be afraid of.She looked down and saw that the trail leading up to the hole was covered in sand and stones. It led straight up to the top, but there was nowhere near enough room for a large animal like the Stalagtor to go through. The tunnel curved sharply to the right before turning around the corner. The tunnel was much smaller than the one she was used to climbing, but somehow she was sure that she knew exactly what she was heading towar

    [Elara's POV]I jolted awake at the alarm clock on my nightstand, groaning as I slapped the thing off and rolled to bury my head beneath my pillows. It had been dark outside, so early in the morning, with not a trace of sunshine to be found, just dark blackness and shadows, broken only by the occasional glint of a small window through a nearby crack. I had woken up early because I had an appointment with the doctor today.For the past few days, I had felt very low and tired most of the time, like someone had drained all the energy from me. Even when I slept, I couldn't rest. My mind had constantly raced around in circles, trying to figure out what had happened while I was asleep and how long I had been unconscious. It had felt impossible. No matter what day it was or where I lived, sleep didn't make me forget things or disappear for good.But last night, I vomited and our pack mother checked my pulse. She said I didn't feel good because I was pregnant. I couldn't believe it because Et

    [Elara's POV]He had kicked the sturdy timber dining table, causing me to jump as it fell to the wooden floor with a loud thud, shaking the decorations in the glass case."What about you?" He shouted. "You simply wanted to be Luna, right? You knew Natalia and I were in a relationship, yet you shamelessly accepted the marriage and betrayed your own cousin sister by stealing her boyfriend! You lied to me. She told me everything!"I couldn't believe my cousin-sister. I had never thought she would do this. "I'm so sorry," I cried, starting to sob as I hugged myself tightly."She's the love of my life. We had been dating since we were eighteen, even before that," he had yelled at me. "It had taken all my self-control not to punch you, Elara."His voice had been filled with frustration and anger. It had been almost enough to make me break down again, but he hadn't given up yet. He had kept going. "You're such a pathetic bitch who has no sense of loyalty to your friends or family." He had wa

    [Elara's POV]I left Ethan's house at night, carrying both pain and the courage to hide it from the world. It was hard for me to conceal my feelings, but I tried not to show them. It didn't matter if I cried, shouted, or screamed—Ethan could never see how much he had affected me. Sometimes it hurt so much that I wanted to take my own life. But I knew better; I knew what would happen. After coming home, I had the feeling that he went to meet Natalia.My heart ached even at the thought of my mate going to see my cousin. How could he do this to me? My love was so pure and sweet; why couldn't he be like that towards me? He must have loved her a lot when they were dating. Natalia's beautiful face filled my mind, and my anger grew again. Gazing at the divorce document before me, I saw that the alimony was seven hundred million dollars. This amount was not trivial. I mean, he really wanted me to leave, didn't he?I hurled the folder onto the mattress. I didn’t need his money. Nothing could e

    [Elara's POV][A year ago]My mind drifted back to our past memories, which still haunted me like a pack of hungry wolves, following me around like shadows that could not be shaken off. My body still felt the remnants of last night’s rejection as it buzzed on every inch of my flesh. "If we become parents one day, I wish they’ll look just like you."As he took me onto his lap and brushed his fingers through my hair, I asked, startled, "Me?""Yes, my gorgeous princess," he kissed my neck in response. "And I hope they have curls just like yours too." I closed my eyes to savor the sensation. He continued with a tender tone, "You’re like the most delicate flower in the world to me."He held me close as if trying to absorb all the beauty I possessed. The feeling of security in his embrace was unlike anyone else’s. I imagined myself in that moment as a child again.His hands caressed my back slowly, sending shivers down my spine. "I love you so much," he said as he stroked my cheek. "And now

    [Elara's POV]When I returned to the Gravefur pack house, I saw him everywhere, as well as the life we had created there. Crippling pain consumed me as I considered what I was leaving behind, but I refused to let him take anything more from me. I would not allow him to harm the life that was growing within me. These babies were just as much mine as they were his, and I would do everything I could for them. My heart ached and my breaths came in heavy pants as the weight of loss sank into my body. The babies wouldn't make it here. The wounds I sustained from the Gravefur pack raid had only grown worse. It was too much for me, let alone the newborn babies. I didn’t want them dying before I had a chance to save them.I wiped my tears and tied my hair in a bun before packing all my belongings. With shaking hands, I picked up my clothes, my personal items; everything precious was packed away in my suitcase. I didn’t look up once. I didn’t speak. I just needed to get out of there. My home.

    [Elara's POV] When I'm a little calmer, my mother asks. I give a headshake. "Not at present, though I'm sure he would eventually.""If the rejection affects the infants?" She asked.I give a head shaking gesture. "No, I asked Smith, but he said I would likely not be able to bear any more kids after this.""Oh my god! We can't allow him to turn you down then, Elara. It will obliterate your prospects of becoming a mother.""Mum! These two priceless babies that are developing inside of me are still mine. They are more than sufficient. In addition, I doubt I will ever be able to love again." I put a hand on my stomach and said in a hushed voice. "I've decided on something. I'll let him go. I'm hoping you can agree with this choice and keep it secret." She smiles and says warmly, "Of course. Why do you have such an aversion towards having children?" I sigh, and she continues. "But no matter what, we'll support you, okay? As long as the decision is yours." I smile back gratefully at her a

It wasn't just her hands or arms; the entire rest of her was on fire. She could feel it burning through every cell that made up her body – inside and out.Bishop Eloise bends down and starts running her fingers through the dirt to pick the locket up. She quickly picks it up and moves towards Pawn Clara, cleaning the dirt off it. But she is surprised to see Rook Theia and Gobi Zalika from behind the tree.Elf Trixie first glances at the two of them and then glances at Pawn Clara.

    [That man's POV]It took a long time for the Gravefur Pack to reach Markkhstan Dari, as the town was quite far from the forest, and the entire pack had to be carried along. But they made it there with barely any problems, as if nothing terrible had happened while they were out there trying to find their pack mates.They arrived at the town with little fuss. The townspeople were still shocked over what had happened, but they managed to keep their shock hidden. Because this was the second time a werewolf had stepped into that place, no one wanted to see this happen again.As soon as they reached Markkhstan Dari, they spread all around. They did not know how their pack mates were doing or what their condition was.The smell of the town was a little strange this time, it was the same energy that Alpha Altan had felt in the pack house a few days back. It looked like they had found a strange new land.“This place is weird,” says Ultima Wolf Drik. “I’ve been here before. It smelled good, but

    [That man's POV]Hearing the chirping of birds, it is time for the moon to go back to sleep in the sky where they belong. The sun has just set, and the light of dawn is beginning to illuminate the land from a distance. But today, it doesn't feel peaceful as usual; no one knows what news this day's sun is bringing. No one knows for whom this sun will be the cause of victory and for whom it will be the cause of defeat.A group of people gathered under the cover of trees in front of Dark Shadow Coven. It was Strigoi who had come to get their revenge. They had already waited a long time. One by one, they took out their weapons; some were armed with swords and knives, while others were holding sharpened stakes. Their expressionless faces showed no sign of emotion or mercy.Some were dressed in the dark robes of the vampires. Most of them carried a bow, a quiver full of arrows, and a dagger for each hand and they all stood ready to do battle. They were prepared and ready for the war.The St

    [That man's POV]"Where is Gamma Kai?" Alpha Altan questioned Alpha Lowell with a roar of anger. In search of him, they were dispersed in two places: some wolves went to the city where he used to live, and some were looking for him in the Nagosia forest. But halfway, they saw the Vanara Pack, which was coming to attack them."Calm down, calm down," Alpha Lowell said to Alpha Altan with a sarcastic smile."You need to get ready for battle before we start it off. We have to take their numbers into consideration," Alpha Altan growled, his teeth bared and bloodlust evident on his face.Alpha Lowell continued to provoke him without missing a beat; he wanted to take revenge for the condition of Howl Wolf Thor, for the blood of Triple Changer Oz, and Theta Wolf Azeil.But Alpha Altan had no time for all this; he needed to find Gamma Kai. He needed to make sure that he was safe, that he was alive, that he wasn't hurt.But one thing still confused him: if Vanara Pack is here for the fight, th

Silver lake with diamond ore looked so beautiful in the morning, and the rays of the sun falling on diamond ore under the silver water made it as if everything was covered in glittering stars.In the winter, when snow and ice were still here, it looked like a diamond trapped inside a glass jar. There were many wildflowers growing around the silver lake.The town was small but charming with small houses like huts made of transparent colorful stones and green trees surrounding them. Everything seemed to be glowing under the golden light. It was as if the whole world was made up of jewels and crystals. The townspeople seemed to live in harmony with each other. They didn't know that they were living in heaven.As they walked through the town, they couldn't help but feel a sense of peace and tranquility. The air was fresh and clean, and the soun

    [That man's POV]The sun of the day had set with all its light and rays, but the moon was yet to rise. Far away in the clear sky, the little North Star was watching every scene happening on earth, as if someone had placed a spy to keep an eye on the earthlings, and was keeping them from discovering the secrets that lay beneath their beautiful surface.The North Star was a benevolent being who looked out over every life form that inhabited the earth. The North Star knew everything that happened on earth, and what went on in heaven.Zeta Eli was sitting in the packhouse looking intently at the open sky. A little more than three minutes had passed since he had started staring up into the clear blue sky.His face was calm, like when you are meditating; no thoughts, no worries, nothing to distract you, nothing to distract your mind. He could stay there for an eternity without even noticing that time had passed.Sometimes a gust of wind blew the hair in front of his eyes and tossed it from
